I think that currently automake will install depcomp in every
situation where it is really required.  If there is a bug here I am
unaware of it.  Can you find a way to reproduce this?

I don't recall this problem offhand.  Did I fix it?

It is vitally important that each bug like this be isolated and
reported as soon as possible.  Automake is in bug-fix mode for the
next release.  We want to fix as many of these problems as we can
before releasing it to a wider audience.
